Chapter 38 Myriad Unleashed; Prelude to Battle! Pt2
Kara and Trunks were on the roof with him pacing around nervously trying to put into the words the thoughts he had(that is the dragon balls and time travel). For the Kryptonian it was irony; this was the location she had made her first 'revelation' to Winn(with him believing her after she gave a demonstration). Now Trunks was about to tell about the Dragon Balls and Time Travel and there was no time like the present to do so; nevertheless she asked "do so many people have to die?" "I hate killing as much as you especially if they're innocent and their free will is being taken away from them by somebody else" Trunks sighed "then do you advocate killing them?" the Kryptonian asked. "No I don't but what Max doesn't know is that we can bring them back" he answered "how Trunks?" The Girl of Steel asked "not even both of our powers combined can revive the dead". The Son of Vegeta took a deep breath "before I say my peace I have to apologize to you Kara...for keeping these things from you so long" and seeing the look of confusion he popped out 2 capsules and let them explode on the roof with a "POOF". Kara saw a machine on one side and 7 orange orbs on the others and asked "what are these supposed to do?" "These" Trunks started "are the dragon balls"; "wait a minute..my mom was right about that?" Kara muttered as a question. "Yes Kara; the name of the Earth's Dragon is Shenron and with him you can get any 3 wishes your heart desires" he confirmed as an answer "I don't understand..how will this Shenron help us?" Kara miffed in confusion. Trunks prepared himself before saying "Shenron can bring the dead back to life..that's how I was revived"; "WAIT A MINUTE YOU DIED?!" Kara exclaimed with a loud shriek "WHEN?" "The Cell Games" Trunks told her "I thought you said you killed Cell" the Kryptonian commented; "in this universe I did but not in the universe I visited" he revealed to her. "What are you talking about?" The Girl of Steel asked now thoroughly confused "that's the other secret I was hiding; all that stuff about Cell I know because I am a time traveler...just like Barry." Kara's mouth formed a huge 'O' shape as she reeled back in shock and muttered "but how? It took Gotenks to be a freaking Super-Saiyan 3 just to break the dimensional void..." "Not if you have a time machine like I do" Trunks corrected her "I used this(*puts his hand on the machine*) "to travel back into another universe if you will do you remember me telling you about Goku dying to that heart virus".
"Yes I remember" Kara recalled then asked "but what does that have to do with time traveling?" "That was the reason I traveled back in time" the hybrid stated "to deliver the antidote to Goku as well as a way to warn him and the other Z fighters about the androids so that they would be better prepared." The Kryptonian noticed Trunks' eyes cloud over in anger and she asked "why are you so angry Trunks?" "Because many lives were lost in the making of the time machine(Dragon Ball Z episode 122 "Mystery Revealed") and couple that with the deaths of Goku, my dad, and Gohan...I was basically the last saiyan alive the lone survivor of a lost world." Kara recognized those words as Alex told her that they were the same words that John told her when he revealed his Martian identity; "couldn't you..you know wish them back?" "Afraid not" Trunks glumly said then noticing her confusion he asked "remember Dende's job description?" "He said that he was guardian of the Earth" the Girl of Steel recalled; "well yes but his main duty is not that he really is linked to the Dragon Balls". "What do you mean?" she asked "if Dende dies the Dragon Balls turn to stone" he frankly stated and seeing her look of shock he elaborated "I know that because in my time line and in the past Kami died".
"Kami?" Kara echoed remembering Trunks telling her of the ex-guardian of Earth "the person Goku met to train to beat Piccolo in the 23rd WMAT and your friends to defeat your dad when he first arrived on Earth? What does he have to do with the Dragon Balls?" "He was Earth's guardian once upon a time" Trunks answered then elaborated "him and Piccolo used to be one being back in the day but because the qualification of being Earth's guardian is the expulsion of evil the guardian before Kami stated that he had to expunge the evil in his heart..thus King Piccolo was born of course you know what happened to him." The hero of National City nodded yes as she recalled King Piccolo's defeat at Goku's hand and regurgitating an egg that became his offspring; "Kami wanted to kill Piccolo in the tournament I've told you before" the Son of Vegeta stated picking up his story "but since Piccolo(or Ma Junior as he called himself) was still technically a part of Kami if he died so did the dragon balls..kinda ironic if you think about it now". "Yea" Kara nodded "Piccolo is a good guy now"; "he wasn't always like that though" Trunks reminded her "it wasn't until 5 years later when Raditz came to Earth that Piccolo's heart was changed by Gohan and well..you know what happened". "He died" she bluntly said "my dad actually helped us bring him back to life because he informed his ex-colleague Nappa that Piccolo's home planet Namek had dragon balls of their own to grant wishes". "No way" Kara muttered in amazement "seriously?" "Yep the name of their dragon is Porunga" Trunks told her "that's how mom got into space..and 'met' my father on Namek". "Oh I remember that story" she laughed "your mom was scared as hell the first time she met Vegeta"; "which makes it all the more miraculous that they're together now" Trunks chuckled in agreement "after all he was still technically 'evil'.
The both had a good laugh at Trunks' parents expense but then his face grew serious once again and said "during the time mom and Gohan searched for the Namekian Dragon Balls, Piccolo was training in Otherworld with King Kai just as Goku had done before them...you see they were able to keep their bodies". That statement set her off "THEN WHERE IS MY AUNT TRUNKS? WHAT HAPPENED TO HER AFTER SHE DIED?" she raged. The hybrid grimaced as she yelled "TELL ME TRUNKS! CAN I BRING HER BACK?"; "I'm sorry Kara" he apologized "but your aunt..was still evil at the time..I'm afraid..we can't bring her back with either Dragon." "WHAT?!" Kara exclaimed so hard that if it weren't for Myriad the entire city would've heard; "look Kara I know how you feel because its the same thing here when Goku died of that damn heart virus. The dragon can't bring back anyone who has died of natural causes or people that had died for more than one year that matter" Trunks explained trying to make her feel better. She didn't and raged "THEN EXPLAIN TO ME WHY GOKU KEPT HIS BODY? WILL NON GET TO KEEP HIS BODY WHEN HE PASSES AWAY? AND WHAT ABOUT KRYPTON TRUNKS? YOU'RE SAYING MY HOME WORLD CAN'T BE BROUGHT BACK EITHER?!"
"I'm not going to lie to you Kara although the answer may be difficult for you to hear" Trunks sighed (sounding a lot like Piccolo at the moment) "this is the truth. Goku devoted his life to protecting the lives of others. Because of his selflessness...when he died...he was allowed to keep his body...and travel to King Kai's planet. Non on the other hand, has spend what I could imagine was a majority of his life in pursuit of his own selfish desires"; "Myriad" Kara muttered calming down and realizing where Trunks was getting at. He nodded yes and finished his commentary "when he dies he will not receive the same reward". "Oh well so be it" Kara said in a tone of resignation(dialog with adaptation and addition from Dragon Ball Z episode 237 "Final Atonement"). Trunks wanted Kara to understand and after putting the time machine and the dragon Balls back into the capsule he asked "now do you understand why I've kept these things from you? If Non or Indigo knew about the Dragon Balls then it could upset the delicate balance of the universe!"(Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad")
The Kryptonian recognized that statement (since it was the same thing her mother said) and angrily pointed out "you could've prevented this with Shenron or the Time machine and you didn't Trunks". "First of all if I wanted to eliminate Myriad or bring back Krypton with the Dragon Balls I would do it in heartbeat but it's beyond Shenron's power to grant either of those wishes." he hugged; "then how did you bring back Gohan back huh?" the Kryptonian questioned angrily. "We used Porunga Namek's Dragon to bring them back to life because he can bring back a person more than once but we couldn't do the same with my dad". "Then how is he alive?" she inquired "I had to convince King Yemma to give my dad a second chance at life" he told her "who's Yemma?" Supergirl asked in a baffled tone "I never heard his name back on Krypton". "Well I guess your mom didn't tell you about him either" Trunks scowled as a response before explaining "Yemma is the ogre who judges souls when they die to determine whether they go to heaven or hell. When you Aunt died her soul went to King Yemma's to be judged". Kara then decided to ask the question that had been bothering her the most "you've said that Goku died in the Cell Games did you bring him back to life?" Trunks grimaced before replying "no"; "why?" she asked "you said that Porunga could bring him back". "Exactly but the thing is that he didn't want to come back to life" he told her "why not?" she asked taken aback by Goku's refusal to return to life. "He himself said as a Saiyan baby, I was sent to Earth to destroy it and though all my life, I've tried to do the opposite, it's kinda like I've been fulfilling that mission all along. So yeah, I'm gonna stay here-(*that is otherworld*) now". Kara flinched at Goku's statement of refusal because she faintly recalled using that argument against Trunks when she blamed him for the bad things that happened to her while under Red Kryptonite. However that caused another question from her in the form of "so why didn't you use the time machine to change history?";"some things deserve to be changed Kara" he responded but added "but using my time machine is how we ended up with Cell in the past in the first place".
"What do you mean?" Kara asked "he used my time machine to travel back to absorb androids 17 and 18 to achieve his perfect form but somehow in the timeline he came from the androids were destroyed. So in order to achieve perfection the version of Cell Goku fought stole killed me and stole my time machine to come to that period" he gritted in reply "hell he even stated the following to me when we fought"(*clears his throat and does an imitation of Perfect Cell's voice*)."By traveling back in time, you thought you could change the events of the future, didn't you? Well, let me assure you that you were successful...though not quite in the way you planned. Rather than prevent the world's destruction...ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...you've guaranteed it!" (Dragon Ball Z episode 164 "Ghosts from Tomorrow"). "So you're saying that the laws of unintended consequences makes time traveling risky?" Kara asked; "afraid so" he sighed in response "its the reason why we had Shenron wipe out the memories of the Z fighters and the Time Machine in the first place from the population. That information in the hands of someone like Non or Indigo could've been used against us and be honest with me Kara(*questioningly*) do you honestly even want to revive your mom given all that you have learned?".
"No" Kara conceded remembering how she was kept in the dark from learning the information the hero of National City wanted to know. First Kara was kept in the dark about the existence of other extra-terrestrial beings(in particular the Saiyans) as well as Otherworld and now she had been kept in the dark about Myriad and both deceptions/hiding came from one source she trusted; her mother. "Still" Kara mused breaking the silence "I wonder how my adoptive mom managed to get her hands on you guys...";"my guess is that the former Hank Henshaw forced Jeremiah to conduct a thorough investigation and gave it to Eliza before he died. Of course we're making the assumption that Jeremiah would have done his research years before we had Shenron wiped everyone's memories clean but it would explain how she knows about us.." Trunks surmised. "What are we going to do now?" the Kryptonian asked her boyfriend after the long silence that followed "don't tell Cat, Max or Alex about what you've learned" he advised her "because we don't even know if they(or the rest of the planet) are going to live to see another dawn if Non follows through on his threat". Kara nodded then asked "is there anything else I need to know?" Trunks nodded and pulled out a pair of earrings from his pockets "is that for me?" she asked.
"If you want to permanently fused with me yes" he joked in response but the Kryptonian asked "what?" "These are Potara earrings they allow you to fuse with another being..permanently" he explained "you mean the fusion dance aren't the only fusion available?" she asked him "there's the dance and there's Potara but Non probably won't allow us to do the fusion dance and in any case we would stand a better chance against Non's army with Potara fusion then Metamorphic fusion" he clarified. "Wait you said its permanent right? Does that mean I won't be yours anymore?" "Well for a short time no" he told her and seeing Kara's despondent look he added "but Shenron can undo the fusion." "Oh" she said in understanding even though Shenron couldn't bring back her parents(or John's family) the kryptonian now understood that he was pretty powerful "of course I have to find a partner either way. Naturally the first person I thought was Gohan but I haven't found him yet and I've looked everyone" "Why don't you ask Piccolo or Dende" National City's hero suggested "maybe they'll know"; "Kara you're a genius! Why didn't I think of that!" the hybrid happily exclaimed giving his girlfriend a peck on the check(Kara blushed to being kissed)."I'll go right now and ask them" then turning serious once more he added "remember what I said; don't tell anybody what you learned". The Kryptonian nodded and told him "don't worry I won't".
At that moment his mom came to the top of Catco via hovercar and Trunks exclaimed "MOM DID YOU FIND GOHAN?" "Fraid not" the scientist responded before she asked "how's Kara holding up?" "I just told her everything mom" he confessed "the dragon Balls, time travel, otherworld, my past(softly) everything". Bulma was taken aback and said "that must've been the most difficult talk you ever had to give her Trunks(aside from when you revealed your saiyan heritage that is).." "Mom can you talk to her" the hybrid pleadingly asked "I have to go to the lookout". "Of course" she responded without any hesitation and being the daredevil that she was scaled down to where Kara was currently standing "oh hi Bulma I'm assuming Trunks told you?" she dully greeted. "Yes he did" the scientist responded; "so its true?" the Kryptonian asked wanting no doubts to linger in her mind "all of it" the Head of Capsule Corps confirmed with a sigh[A/N Star Wars the Force Awakens reference!]before saying "look both my daughter and I disagreed with Trunks when he told me that he wasn't going to tell you about the Dragon Balls or Time Travel but Trunks figured it was too risky and my husband and Gohan agreed. Trunks' saiyan side wanted to prevent what had happened during the androids to happen to your family, your friends and YOU Kara..because he loves you."
"I know he loves me.." The Girl of Steel sighed "it's just difficult for me to comprehend all that Trunks has told me.."; "it was the same with Goku; he found it hard to believe Vegeta and I were his parents but after taking one look he believed him and Trunks told me that the lovable saiyan oaf gave the alternate universe's version of myself and Vegeta hints about Trunks being born". "Did they found out?" Kara asked even though she couldn't help but giggle at the awkwardness of 'knowing' that you had a child in the future but you can't tell them as Bulma laughed "no but after the alternate universe me met Trunks when he came back Piccolo told her that (*quoting Piccolo*) 'he(the younger version of Trunks) you are holding in your arms eventually grows up to be"(Dragon Ball Z episode 132 "Follow Dr. Gero")." "Being the genius you are must've meant that the other universe's Bulma must've put two and two together" Kara guessed still giggling a bit; "you got it" she cheerfully responded. "Thanks Bulma" the Kryptonian said in response "don't mention it just don't say anything to Cat or Max" Bulma replying repeating the words Trunks had told her to do.
It was at that moment that Cat Grant emerged and seeing Bulma told her "not that it isn't a surprise to see you here but why aren't you affected?" "Well" Capsule Corp's CEO replied "I knew that Non was going to unleash Myriad on National City and I've prepared by making sure he didn't control my mind". Bulma had to hold her breath even though Cat believed the story of how she wasn't affected she had to ask "what were you and Supergirl discussing?" "Something personal that involves what Max Lord has planned" Trunks' mother replied not wanting to get into too much details over the very personal secrets that her son and her had shared with Kara. Cat believed her but was thinking of the city as a whole and monologued "I've always liked the view out of this window; wish I had it from my office. I like looking at the park; all the people..mothers pushing their strollers. Kids playing..I wonder which of them will die in Max's moronic attempt to save the city." "Hopefully it won't come to that" Bulma sighed as Kara fumed "I don't know how to fight this; neither does Mystic Fighter for the matter. What would you have me do?(she asked) "You and him could come up with a better plan than irradiating the city and killing thousands of people" the head of Catco told Supergirl who winced(along with Bulma) and sighed desperately; "my mother was faced with this decision on Krypton." Kara told Cat "To act or do nothing and she chose wrong; I love her but she didn't save Krypton as she promised and my planet died..my culture my home my parents..everything was wiped from the stars(exhales sharply) how can I let that happen again?" "Now you know how I felt when I made the decision about my son Supergirl" Bulma chimed in after Kara told Cat about her planet's faith; Kara now knew what Bulma meant by that statement. Bulma had just told her that if Trunks revealed his identity to the alternate universe's Bulma and Trunks there was a risk that they wouldn't be able to exist in that universe; she thought 'I now know what Pan meant when she said that there was a risk of him not existing back then it makes sense now'.
Cat was baffled by Bulma's comment to Supergirl but the scientist's(and the Kryptonian's words) struck a cord with her "I know you're scared" she told Kara "I am too but so is Max and so is Non for that matter. All of you are letting your fear guide you but somebody has to have the courage to stand up even though they're not afraid." "I agree with you on that Cat" Bulma chuckled after which Cat asked the female heroine "you know the worst decisions I've ever made in my life were based on fear? But you and Mystic Fighter showed me that there was another way to be strong, by having faith in people; by believing that goodness will prevail. And because of you two I started letting people in(chuckles) I even started opening up to my assistant Kee-rah who helped me have a relationship with my son again(*she confessed to Supergirl*). 'Even though he was nothing but trouble with my son's relationship with Kara I'm glad that good came out of it and because of that Cat has opened up to her, Pan and my son' Bulma thought as Supergirl's Pseudo-mother told her "now I can't tell you or Mystic Fighter what to do Supergirl but if you two taught me anything you've thought me that hope is stronger than fear(chuckles) and that is what I think of every time I look at that(*referring to Kara's S*) or that(*pointing to Bulma's Capsule Corp jacket*). You two have changed me and I am not easy to change and I believe that the both of you can change everyone out there. Not with violence not with fear just be Supergirl and Mystic Fighter(Kara smiles thinking of Trunks) that's all anyone's ever needed from you two." Trunks heard everything between the two of them and his mother(he had returned from the lookout) and was touched by Cat's words as he IT'ed quietly from the roof back down to Catco without her noticing him; "thank you Cat" Supergirl whispered giving her a hug before saying "that gives me an idea"(dialog with addition from Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad"). Bulma wondered what her idea was and when she looked at Trunks he shrugged his shoulder indicating that he had no idea what she was planning but seeing her smile gave him the indication that the idea his Kryptonian girlfriend had was a good one.
Indigo was questioning Non about his actions; "is the deed done?" "Kara Zor-El and Trunks Briefs will no longer be a problem" the general reassured the Coulian in a reassuring tone "are they dead or aren't they?" Indigo bluntly asked. "I could've killed them" the general responded "but that would've spared them the agony of losing everyone they love I thought it would please you". "You've always known how to please me" the Coulian purred "now its time to consider what's next"; "next we go to Metropolis" Astra's husband told her "then to Opal City, Central City, West City, Washington D.C.". "You sound like a cut-rate politician running for office" Indigo scoffed "the small dreams of a small man not worthy of you"; "already the humans in this city have cast away their differences and are working towards the salvation of their planet" Non retorted before noting "for a lesser species they are surprisingly creative; they show exceptional ingenuity". "That's the same thing Jor-El and Bardock said about this place but it makes it all the better to serve you" the Coulian oily commented but then added "and yet you falter". "I am Lord of the Earth" the rogue Kryptonian declared to the skeptical Indigo who angrily retorted "you could be the Lord of the Universe! Don't you realize what you have?"(she asked then answered) "You've created a force that could take over the galaxy; a vast army that exists only to do your bidding that's more powerful than that of Frieza! You want to take one planet and turn it into your fiefdom when you have an entire universe crying out to be ruled by you; to worship you as I do".(dialog with addition from Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad") Non then led her to where he had Gohan captive and said "one of the mightiest Saiyans in the world is under our control Indigo and soon the world will follow". That managed to quell doubts in Indigo's mind for now as they continued in their plans to conquer to universe.
Back in Midvale everybody was still in Alex's home taking refuge; currently Eliza was asking John and Vegeta about what her daughter had said being 'on the run' "Alex said you two were on the run are you in some kind of trouble with the DEO?" "You can say that" Vegeta grunted in response; John was about to elaborate on Vegeta's statement when he heard Alex ready her gun with a 'click' to which he lectured "Alex we've been through this"". "If you expect me to watch you and Vegeta fly away you're out of your mind" Alex growled to them "this is not up for discussion Alex" John fumed "you'll only get in our way Danvers" Vegeta added which was punctuated by Eliza commenting "Alex I know how brave you are but you cannot fight this!" "Yes; Yes we can" came the response then recalling a memory Alex vented "I remember the last time I watched my father walk out that door. It was the worst day of my life; not finding out whether or not he was coming back but watching him go. Knowing that whatever happened next I had no say; that is not me". "There's nothing you can do" the Martian sighed "yes there is if you two help me" she insisted which caused Vegeta to question "how?"
"You two can protect me you(*addresses John*) can use your telepathy to guard my mind; and you(*now talking to Vegeta*) can use your ki to create additional mental barriers with my mind". John and Vegeta thought about it for a long time; even though they both knew that they would be chewed out by Trunks and Kara for bringing Alex into the city the refuge from Mars reluctantly agreed saying "all right" and Vegeta murmuring "you are equally as stubborn as your sister Danvers". Alice grew wide eyed as a result of hearing that from her grandfather 'and here I thought she(meaning Supergirl) was naturally stubborn on her own...guess she must've gotten it from Alex and this Eliza. She watched as they both started to walk away with Eliza whispering "promise you'll come home" to Alex to which she croaked "I promise; I will try very very hard" to her. Alex felt like Eliza needed to know about Jeremiah saying "mom there's something you need to know about dad.." but was interrupted by John's stern "Alex we should go"; "what is it?" Eliza asked. She looked at Hank and Vegeta with them both shaking their heads no which caused her to say "I'll tell you when I get back". John slowly turned into Martian Manhunter and Vegeta followed it up by transforming into a Super-Saiyan before Eliza's eyes; "we'll see you soon doctor"(dialog with addition from Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad") John told her in that distorted Martian voice before they left.
'If Jeremiah's dead then why damage his memory to his wife?' Alice thought to herself (after they left) 'something's not right here.' Despite Alice knowing that she had to tell her father and Supergirl about Alex coming to National City, she also wanted to see her grandfather fight-since the future daughter correctly presumed they were stepping into a battlefield and decided to follow them. Alice only heard of John's exploits in stories and she wanted to see if they were true the way that her father was curious about Vegeta's power; even though Alice had experience fighting John in the future there was always a bit of reluctance on his part to even spar with her. Even though it was for her own good every time John sparred with her it painfully reminded of Kara and he never got to use his full power on the saiyan-kryptonian female(or Saiyatonian if we're being technical about it). She concealed her energy signal so that Vegeta and John wouldn't sense her; Indigo was looking at the hologram as well. While she didn't see Alice she did see the other two(as well as Gohan) and with a dark smile commented "the Martian and the Saiyan; they're back". They landed in National City but Alex saw that John and Vegeta were groaning in pain and in a concerned tone asked "what is it? Are you guys okay"; "this Myriad signal is really strong" John grunted "its taking a lot out of my mental energy shielding your mind from it". "Same with me" Vegeta added with a similar groan "the mental strain I'm taking in protecting you is taking a toll on me". "Okay if you two have to sacrifice me" Kara's sister began but the last Son of Mars interrupted with "that's not going to happen"; "the last thing we need is a bunch of angry women chasing us down with frying pans over your death Danvers" the saiyan prince agreed with a slight shudder thinking about Kara, Bulma and Eliza chasing them down with the dreaded object.
Alice heard that and couldn't help but slightly snicker at the truth of Vegeta's statement but then the question of Alex to John floored her; "why did you stop me from telling my mother that my father was alive?" 'Jeremiah Danvers is alive?' the future daughter of Trunks thought to herself 'but..that's impossible! Alex told me he died!' The hybrid knew that he couldn't have been revived with Earth's or Namek's dragon because of the time limit(and at the same time she and Pan double checked to make sure that both sets were still active). Alice was snapped out of her thoughts by Martian Manhunter who told Alex "until we stop Non there is nothing we can do to save your father; Eliza has enough on her plate worrying about you and Kara" which was seconded by Vegeta saying "I agree with the Martian". 'Kara' Alice thought to herself 'how does Alex, John and my grandfather know about Kara?' but once again was interrupted when a sudden 'whoosh' caught Alex off guard which caused her to emit a scream. "You again?!" Vegeta roared as John unloaded fired his weapon to no effect to which she sneered "nice try" to him "how the hell did you survive?" the saiyan prince asked "Winn and Kuiza destroyed you!"
'Wait a minute Winn?' Alice thought herself as Indigo oily replied "Non managed to..shall we say give me a reboot?" to Vegeta. Then addressing John the Coulian sneered "you didn't even see me coming; there was only a 25.6% of you two would show up once again defying the odds. Just like that time your people perished and you alone survived"(*addresses Vegeta*) "and you the proud prince of Saiyans how does it feel to be the only full-bloodied Saiyan since your arch-rival Goku is dead and you yourself don't know about the location of your dear brother Tarble?(chuckles) impressive but the humans might call that lucky". John heard enough and used his Martian powers to blitz Indigo in the stomach with Vegeta launching an energy attack; after the Coulian fell to the ground as a result of the combined attack Martian Manhunter seethed "it has nothing to do with luck" to her. He then dragged her along the ground and launched her against an isolated house(causing the Coulian to scream) after which Vegeta yelled "BIG BANG ATTACK!" incinerating it. Thinking that it was over Vegeta and John dropped their guards and started to walk over to Alex to help her up; therefore when Indigo reformatted Vegeta didn't sense her doing so and wasn't prepared for an extended arm stabbing both him and John in the stomach! Alice gasped and wanted to help them but thankfully they had enough strength to lift themselves up; Vegeta and John were about to launch another attack(even though they were weakened) but Indigo ordered "stand down or I scrape her brain from her skull". "John Vegeta" Alex gasped "don't listen to her just(gasp) go find Supergirl and Mystic Fighter; save the City".
However they both collapsed with Vegeta reverting back to base form and lapsing into unconsciousness and John doing the same(after reverting back to his Martian State). "Endangered now extinct" Indigo hummed happily thinking the both of them were dead "I do love wiping out a species and your next..human". The Coulian then took Alex back to base to which Alice emerged and ran over to both of the fallen warriors; after doing a check using her Ki and her hearing(not super but accelerated hearing from Trunks) Alice sighed "they're not dead"(dialog with addition from Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad"). During her flight to National City, Alice snagged 2 Senzu beans with Trunks having the other Senzu beans for the upcoming fight(there were 3 one for himself, one for Gohan and one for Kara) while Bulma, Cat and Kara conversed. Even though he could've obtained more, Trunks figured that Dende could heal whoever else was injured in the aftermath. When she arrived Piccolo asked "who are you" but Dende stopped the ex-guardian by saying "its okay she's on our side"; "I need Senzu beans" she told the both of them making it very clear of her objectives. "Well Trunks dropped by earlier today and picked up 3 senzu beans; he also wanted to know where Gohan was. Dende and I searched but we couldn't find him" Earth's guardian told her. Alice was not surprised to hear that because her father was always prepared for a fight(although she was disturbed by Piccolo not knowing where Gohan was). Still she didn't have time to worry about Gohan right now because of the dire situation and asked "how many Senzu's are left?" "2" Dende replied; "I'll take them" Alice said. "Wait a minute" Piccolo interrupted "what are you intending to do with the Senzu beans?" "Vegeta and John are injured Piccolo" she responded then blasted off without another word. "What the hell was that about?" the Namekian crossly asked Dende "she's the daughter of Trunks Briefs and Kara Zor-El and she has come 5 years from the future using a time machine" Earth's guardian revealed.
"What?" Piccolo asked shocked "the daughter of Trunks and Kara? Does he or Kara know that she's on Earth?" The Namekian warrior thought it wasn't possible for Kryptonians to have children but lo and behold they were wrong; "no" Dende replied then added "but they will soon but the thing is that the girl doesn't know about Kara being Supergirl or that she's her mother". "Basically your saying its similar to when Trunks went to warn Goku and the others about the androids right?" Piccolo inferred deciphering the truth; "exactly" Dende confirmed. "Well then" Earth's ex-guardian sighed(sounding a lot like Kami) "I guess there's nothing we can do because either way she's going to meet both of her parents now"; "true" the current Guardian conceded then added "but the thing is that Alice won't be endangered in not existing in this time-line as long as she doesn't figure out that Kara is her mother". "With our luck I won't be surprised if she does eventually find out" Piccolo grumbled in a Vegeta-like matter; "yea I feel sorry for whoever is going to be on the receiving end of a major beat-down when she finds out" Dende agreed with a chuckle. "The combined powers of two of the most powerful races in the universes with human rage and the sun to further boost her power..." Piccolo mused to Dende with a chill traveling down his spine "just thinking about how strong she can become is mind-boggling." Those were the thoughts of Piccolo and Dende as Alice was racing to find her father's energy while after 'dropping off' the Senzu beans to John and Vegeta. When she got to National City she watched the same horror that Kara and Trunks watched(with Superman marching while the others typed away) 'this is bad' she said to herself 'they're all mindless drones...Non'll pay for what he's done'.
At Max Lord's facility Kara, Supergirl, Bulma, Pan and Trunks were ready to tell him of their decision. Max thought that Kara was here to tell him that she had finally come around saying "good you've changed your mind" on his idea. I was starting to regret saving it in the first place" on using the bomb to be rid of the problem. "Oh boo hoo" Pan sniped in a sarcastic tone which caused Max to remark "for the record I seriously thought that all of us would be having a lot more fun during Armageddon". "Oh Max we're not here to talk about your bomb Supergirl has a plan" Cat told him which caused Max to chuckle "which means Cat browbeat you" to the female heroine". "Inspired is closer to the truth" Supergirl retorted back which caused Bulma to laugh "I couldn't have said it any better Supergirl" and punctuated by Cat telling him "I'm a muse Max to the world". After clicking his tongue Max asked the Krytonian "so what's your plan?"; "hope" came the simple reply(Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad"). 'Hope' Trunks thought to himself with a smile 'that was the same plan and message mom gave to me and that she wrote on my time machine; the word hope-on the side of Trunks' Time machine(as well as Alice's but in pink rather than black) emphasized that it was hope for their world(Dragon Ball Wiki Time Machine) and now it was going to be used as a way to save the world once more and Trunks thought 'why didn't I think of that. However Max thought it was a horrible idea and said "you know what I'm gonna go with the plan that has the bomb and kills the bad guy instead" to Kara who said "no bomb no one dies". "You think I wanna do this?" he questioningly scoffed to the Kryptonian before stating "its the only way to win". "What?" she asked back "what are we winning? Causing more chaos? More destruction? More lives lost? You hated me and the Gold fighter for months because you thought that we'd use our powers indiscriminately; kill people with no regard for their lives".
"Its true Max but as strong as we are we're not Gods" Trunks' voice rang speaking for the first time; Kara mentally asked 'you heard?' 'Everything and by the way its a great idea' he mentally replied back; Kara was glad that he had heard the conversation with Cat and his mother and that he liked the idea of using hope because she saw the word(albeit it was faded it was on the time machine Cell used) on his Time machine. Then turning back to Max Kara back-ended Trunks' statement by saying "which is exactly the choice you're making with this bomb". "Please tell me you've had enough analysis to know that they're right" Cat pleaded to the mogul as Supergirl stated "you were afraid of the both of us and now you're afraid of Non. I understand that fear but we cannot allow it drive our actions(she declared then begged) make another choice that honors your parents, mine's and Goku's." Max thought for a long time took a deep breath and told her "I'm listening". Unknown to any of them Alex was being held captive and now Indigo was waking up her sneering "wakey-wakey" to the sister of Kara Danvers. "Where am I?" she asked in a shaky voice "at the heart of our operation" Non responded to which Alex sneered "this is where you and Astra have been hiding all these years?" to the general. "Yes this was our prison; our home" he smoothly told the sister of his niece then adding(in a slightly enraged tone) "until you killed her with a Kryptonite sword. I wanted you wide awake so I can see the pain and fear in your eyes as you died". "I may have told him you did the deed" Indigo chirped to Alex explaining how Non knew about Astra's death "sorry".
"Astra didn't want this" she told the both of them "after you used the Black Mercy on Supergirl and the Tuffle Virus on the Mystic Fighter she came to me; told me and Gohan how to save them. She didn't kill me or Pan when she had the chance; I'm sure she loved you but what you're doing to National City what your planning to do to Earth she lost her taste for it hear her now." "She and your niece consider themselves sisters, and Mystic Fighter and Gohan brothers" Indigo reminded her general "family"; "your point?" he asked back. The Coulian gave an evil smile as she asked "you want to hurt them both? I know how"(Dialog with addition from Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad". "Gohan and I would never betray the ones we love" Alex declared; "tough luck human because we already have Gohan under our thumb" Indigo sneered. "No" she muttered"its not true"; "show her Non" she whispered; Non snapped his fingers and out stepped Gohan! "I am a soldier of Non's and soon you and all of Earth will be kneeling at Non's feet" he robotically told her Alex was so overwhelmed by the shock of seeing Gohan being controlled that she didn't notice Non dangling the Omegahedron[A/N that's what its called in Better Angels which of itself is a shout-out to the original Omegahedron in the 1984 Supergirl movie by the writers. Kinda fitting since Helen Slater(who played the O.G. Supergirl in the movie) was a part of this episode-19- as well as the finale alongside Laura(who played S.G. in Smallville)] in front of Alex. Swinging it back and fort like a pendulum Alex's mind was brainwashed into coming under its power and being used to whatever whims of fancy Non and Indigo had planned for both her and Gohan.
Alice was still searching for her father's energy and thankfully she could detect it alongside of Supergirl's, Pan, her grandmother, Max Lord and(to her surprise) Cat Grant as they were on the move across town to an old run down building. "Will any of this equipment work?" Kara asked Cat in a skeptical tone which was reflected by the rest of the assembly; "well no reason why it shouldn't" Cat commentated. "Yea no offense Cat but compared to the technology I'm used to this technology is kind of...well prehistoric" Pan sweat-dropped after Max commented "so you've brought us to your very first out of the way TV station so we can what? What dust off your daytime Emmy?" "No Max and Pan actually we are here to inspire; we are going to show them two symbols one of optimism love and yes hope" Cat sternly corrected the two of them. She then added "a sight so undeniable that people would recognize it even under this spell"; "where do we start" Max asked(dialog with addition from Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad"). Trunks also corrected Pan by saying "unless you've forgotten this prehistoric technology was how we found out about Cell in the first place"; Gohan's daughter blushed in embarrassment as she had forgotten that when Bulma(from universe 6) told Trunks about another time machine she sent the picture to him via fax machine- when Bulma said "I'm sending it via fax machine" and Krillen asking "wait you have a fax machine?" That prompted him to ask "what's a fax machine?" to which Krillen commented"see that one makes sense"(Dragon Ball Z Abridged episode 43: "The trouble with Time Travel"). Kara figured Trunks was once again talking about his time traveling adventures and whispered "be sure to tell me everything about your adventures after we get rid of Myriad"; "you got it" he promised his love with a whisper.
Thankfully Cat was not focused on their conversation as she was asking Max "do you think you can do it?" "We can't stop Myriad's signal but we can piggyback off of it" he replied "we're lucky this TV station is old". "Not that old" Catco's boss retorted to Max "not old-old but old enough that it uses broadcasting technology instead of digital" he observed; "kicking it old school I like it" Bulma complemented for once. "So how are we going to stop Myriad with this old technology?" Pan asked; "we can transmit a signal by calibrating it to Myriad's frequency without any online fingerprints" Max explained to the hybrid. "Nice" Trunks complemented as Kara taunted "take that Indigo"; "it'll ride the wave without anyone knowing a thing" Max commentated "which means Indigo won't be able to hack into it" Bulma finished. Cat saw a potential flaw "I have one question for you Max?" she asked; "shoot"; "the earrings how would you know I wear them?" The tech genius hesitated then responded "I didn't..I just had hope".
Suddenly a loud 'bang' was heard outside to which Supergirl and Trunks ordered them to "stay here". When they rounded the corner Supergirl immediately recognized her sister and asked "Alex what are you doing here? I told you not to come". Trunks also recognized Gohan and asked "where the hell have you've been Gohan?! We've been looking all over for you!" "I warned you what would happen if you worked against me; I found your ultimate opponents two that knows both of your every weakness" Alex sneered which was added by Gohan saying "surprise". "Non" Trunks hissed as Kara gasped "no; no I'm not doing this; I'm not going to fight my sister". "Same here I'm not going to fight my brother" the hybrid hissed to the demented hybrid as Kara shouted "DID YOU HEAR THAT NON? IF YOU WANT TO FIGHT ME AND TRUNKS COME OUT HERE AND DO IT YOURSELF! I'M NOT GOING TO HURT HER". "SAME HERE!" Trunks yelled to Non in a furious tone "I AM NOT FIGHTING HER OR GOHAN!"; "you have no choice" he gritted "kill Alex Danvers or let her kill you(to Kara); kill Gohan Son or let him kill you"(to Trunks). Either way(Alex and Gohan speaking) you two lose."
Alex then drew out a weapon and asked "recognize this?(Non's Voice) its the same sword your sister used(Alex's voice) to Kill Astra." Likewise Gohan drew out a sword and asked Trunks "remember this?(Non's voice) its the same sword you used(Gohan's voice) to inflect damage to Kara Zor El; now the same sword will be used against you(both voices) its almost justice." "Alex-Gohan(Trunks) please wake up!" they both begged; "they can't hear you" Alex smoothly said "revenge won't bring Astra back" Kara pointed out "it'll only poison your mind and drive you mad" Trunks finished. "I don't want to bring her back" Non voiced(*Alex and Gohan's voice*) I want you two to join her(dialog with addition from Supergirl episode 19 "Myriad")."The Demi-Saiyan snorted "the both of us aren't evil like you Non; I know for a fact that if we die we won't be joining Astra"; they were about to attack when suddenly a voice cursed "damn it I'm too late". "Who dares interfere?" Non(through) Alex voiced; "me" she spat to the heartless general "by the time I'm finished with you Non you will burn in hell and that's a promise.
"Whoa wait a minute" Supergirl interrupted "where the hell did you come from "and how do you know about Non?"; Alice gulped 'here we go' she thought then communicated "I know because I'm from the future"(Kara gasps)"as to how I know about Non its because of him and them"(points to Trunks, Alex and Gohan). "Oh that's rich" Non(though Alex) snorted "do you honestly expect me to believe that?"; "no I don't" she retorted "I don't expect you to understand Non; I've come from a timeline that has gone to hell and I don't want that to be repeated here!" "If you are from the future then how do you know about me, Alex, Gohan, Non and Supergirl?" Trunks asked her "most of the stuff I know comes from my Godmother Pan but the rest comes from you...dad". 'Holy freaking crap its deja vu all over again' the now shocked father thought to himself but Kara wanted a name just make sure "what's your name?" she asked. "My name is Alice Briefs" she informally told the heroine "and I am Trunks' daughter 5 years from the future". END CHAPTER
Outro: hey its me Alex and next time on the Dragon Girl Series I don't know what's harder to believe me fighting Kara, Gohan fighting Trunks or the appearance of Chi-Chi(who is supposed to be dead) Anyway Kara and Trunks makes a speech on TV to National City that snaps everyone out of Myriad and I finally tell mom the truth about Dad being alive! Anyway Trunks says he has a plan regarding to take down Non's army with Potara fusion but if its permanent then why is my sister so calm about it? Doesn't she realize that she'll lose Trunks forever if that happens(according to him)..next time Dragon Girl Z: Finale I: An emotional plea, and discussions! Don't miss out on the action!
Me: hey guys another chapter in the figurative canister and now I'll begin writing the finale; yea I know its a bit late but I had to plow through these last two chapters. By the favorites I'm getting I'm assuming that you liked how I incorporated Alice into this whole mess with Myriad; she'll be a part of the finale fight but her role would be the role I described she would do in the outro(getting Bulma to the battlefield). She would witness for herself the closeness of Kara and Trunks as well as Cat's closeness to her and will be confused by both. The way that control of Alex is broken will be the same way that control of Gohan will be broken that is mention of their mothers(which is a shout-out to the Batman V Superman movie in terms of the end of their battle). Just as a note the finale will be a 5/6 part finale rather than the usual 2 part finale because the individual "segments" will be a chapter onto itself. It'll be very similar to the finale but I'll have my own twists added on to it so I'm keeping those twists under my hat for now but if you have been following then you should know what's coming. If you do please don't spoil anything!
Also in terms of the Sequel oh boy Its going to be big; based on the events of tournament alone its going to be pretty extreme for Supergirl/Trunks as well as the other characters who will be there as support for them(as well as Alice coming back as well)! Even though its going to have some changes expect it to contain the same humor as the tournament that fans have been seeing these last few weeks on Dragon Ball Super. I already revealed that Arale is going to show up and will bring Alex out of her shell; in terms of the show the only time she's been out of it was when she and Max Lord went out on that date.Its implied that Alex got more "serious" and dropped her party-girl/non-caring attitude(as we saw in "Manhunter") when John recruited her for the DEO. As such I'm assuming that Alex had got so serious in her "duties" to the DEO that things like relaxing or taking care of babies(*cough episode of Super taking care of Baby Pan cough*) will be awkward for her. In fact I'll be even bold as to say that Alex will be totally out of her league in taking care of a baby which will lead to some funny situations(even more so then they'll portray it in the anime!) Now I know people will point out that Alex has been "taking care"of Kara but it seems like there was resentment for many years between the two of them hell the pilot and Manhunter alluded to that -in terms of Alex's POV- and Falling pointed it out (from Kara's POV) before they reconciled. Because of that(as well as the time she has spend at the DEO) is why I say that Alex would be somewhat clueless in taking care of a baby.
Anyway in terms of Arale's power she was one of the most OP characters Akira Toryriama ever created; in the Dr. Slump manga she could shatter the Earth with her power and sped from Earth to Saturn and back! With the amount of time that has passed since her last appearance(Episode 52 of Dragon Ball) we can safely assume that Arale has gotten even stronger if she has been keeping up in her training. Most people don't know Dr. Slump because it wasn't dubbed by Funimation into English in America but its HUGE in Japan and if/when Funi dubs Super I hope they do the voice/character of Arale justice. Actually if you think about it Penguin Village was part of the DB universe so does that mean that Dr. Slump's universe is part of Dragon Ball? I know that they're two separate things altogether but its fun to think about because the purpose of having Arale in Dragon Ball was to join Akira's old character to his new character(Goku) and many fans of Dragon Ball point out that Arale served as inspiration in what Goku's character would be. If you want more information about Arale I suggest you watch Geekdom's video of who is Arale as he gives an overview of who she is! I wonder if the reason Akira brought back Arale in Super is to counter-act the popularity of Saitama because if you think about it Dr. Slump and One Punch Man have quite a bit in common. If Saitama is One Punch Man than Arale is One Punch Girl lol!
Also in terms on Pan demeaning the technology even though she was born during the android threat you have to remember that she was sheltered at Capsule Corps(both before and after Gohan's death) so she grew up around its technology. Plus its also poking slight fun at the old technology moment in the show as well as Dragon Ball Z Abridged specifically Bulma's booty call moment which was pretty hilarious! In terms of Alice's power AS OF RIGHT NOW she's slightly stronger SSJ Vegito(at full power as a Super-Saiyan under the yellow sun). However in terms of Alice's POTENTIAL AND POWER I believe that she is capable of taking down the powerhouses of both the DC And the DB universe such as Gotenks(Res F), Goku/Vegeta(pre-HTC training for Champa's tournament), Brainiac(the O.G. Brainiac) and Mongul and that's just under the power of the yellow sun!
I think you know where I'm going with this; the more time she spends under the yellow sun the stronger she gets, and with Alice also having the typical Zenkai boost she can become more powerful. Earth's yellow sun isn't the only 'sun' in the universe(obviously) sooner or later Kara/Alice will get in contact with Blue Suns in the show since Superman has already come in contact with it in the comics. Red-unstable for Kryptonians just like any other man for a sayian it burns out quickly(such as Kaioken and SSJ God). Yellow(stable) Super-Saiyan and its power-ups for Saiyans we know for sure the multipliers; 50x base (for SSJ) 100x base (SSJ2), 300x base (SSJ3) and 400x base- SSJ4(yea I know its not canon but still the boost has been accepted by the fans). For Kryptonians there is a "measure" of strength under the light of the yellow sun that slowly increases over time. For White we don't know; the rumors of SSJ White are just rumors and also comic book fans only postulate how must stronger Superman would be under the powers of a White Star.
This is the 'yellow and blue' Kryptonian that Astra/Alura was talking about; when Kara "sun-dips" it acts like a temporary boost/technique(like Goku's kaioken ability) but if Kara can control it then it will become a power-up all of its own. I think you know where I'm going with this(those who watch dragon ball that is)! Red-unstable for Kryptonians just like any other man for a sayian it burns out quickly(such as Kaioken and SSJ God). Yellow(stable) Super-Saiyan and its power-ups for Saiyans we know for sure the multipliers; 50x base (for SSJ) 100x base (SSJ2), 300x base (SSJ3) and 400x base- SSJ4(yea I know its not canon but still the boost has been accepted by the fans). For Kryptonians there is a "measure" of strength under the light of the yellow sun that slowly increases over time. For White we don't know; the rumors of SSJ White are just rumors and also comic book fans only postulate how must stronger Superman would be under the powers of a White Star. Think of the "yellow Kryptonian" as Naruto's Sage Mode; with enough training and Ki control Kara can "access" it if she's in a tight situation and her body literally becomes a Kryptonian version of a Super-Saiyan; for blue stars she turns into a Kryptonian version of SSJ Blue.
Now if Alice manages to learn how to control it and merge it with the Super-Saiyan powers she inherited from Trunks she'll become all the more stronger for it! Since Alice is OC character so don't criticize me for making her so strong because there's no consensus to how strong a saiyan/kryptonian hybrid would be. The last post in many fan forums was posted before the SSJ God/SSJ Blue came to be so we don't even know how much stronger a Kryptonian-Saiyan hybrid would be in a hypothetical situation if Goku(as of episode 40 of Super) were to fall into the Supergirl universe and fall in love with the female heroine. Of course this is not Goku/Kara this is Trunks/Kara but as you've seen Trunks has already "obtained" SSJ God(albeit temporary) during his fight with Dark Kara but have no fear he will be getting the God powers for good after the tournament finishes! Of course he needs to train in order to obtain the SSJ Blue power but I won't spoil anything on that matter quite yet but I promise it'll be good! With all of that taken care of I'll just leave you with references; I knew what I was going to do in terms of my references but a few I added on the spot when I heard the dialog in the show(such as the fax machine moment). Anyway see you guys next chapter!
